About: I have had my own dogs for over 10 years. I am experienced with scared and reactive rescues, as well as care free couch potatoes. My priority is learning about a dog and a the “whys” behind their behavior to help understand them. I treat every animal I meet just as they are my own family member ! I am currently working part time, I have plenty of time to care for your pets. My schedule is very flexible and I can work it around your pet’s! I have two dogs at home currently but my schedule is very flexible. I take them all over to the parks in the city and would love to do the same with yours !

About: Hi my name is Sydney and I have grown up with animals my entire life. I have had everything from fish to horses, and they all have a special place in my heart. I have experience with owning and interacting with all types of dogs, from Chinese-Crested to Pit-bulls and Rottweilers. I have been around animals my entire life and have always had the responsibility in taking care of them. I have pet sat for many families these past few years and I'm looking forward to continue with more! I currently have a Domestic Long Hair Cat who runs the show at my house, however I would love the opportunity to complete drop in visits, take your pets for a long walk, or come stay with your furry friend while your out of town! I am currently a stay at home mom with a very flexible schedule to help out furry friends big and small. I am available from early in the morning to late in the evenings.

I know your pet is your baby, and I will care for them with the love and compassion I do my own.
